I'm always glad that I was born a woman. Here are some of the advantages of being female.

We got off the Titanic first.

We can cry and get off speeding fines.

Taxis stop for us.

Men die earlier, so we get to cash in on the life insurance.

We don't look like a frog in a blender when dancing.

Free drinks, Free dinners, Free movies ... (you get the point).

New lipstick gives us a whole new lease on life.

We can talk to people of the opposite sex without having to picture them naked.

If we marry someone 20 years younger, we're aware that we look like an idiot.

There are times when chocolate really can solve all your problems.

We'll never regret piercing our ears.

We can fully assess a person just by looking at their shoes.

We know which glass was ours by the lipstick mark.

We have enough sense to realise that the easiest way to get out of being lost is to ask for directions.

Can you think of any more?

Joan :grin:

    i like being a woman as we have a good reason to play with all our kids toys, and have a second childhood, and also spoil our kids, and hug them, and go with them to watch all the kids movies, even though we let people think we dont like them.

    The main advantage (as I see it) is the total lack of taters. Men are wonderful, beautiful, enchanting, amusing, creative, entertaining and a right bunch of ******** all at the same time. I (personally) wouldn't be without them, but the main advantage of being a woman is not being a bloke. DD

    19. You can leave a hotel bed unmade.

    Well I can leave a hotel bed unmade any time :!: I wouldn't dream of making it when I'm on holiday and paying someone else to do it.

    All things considered, I wouldn't like to be a man.

    A woman has the power which surprises men. She can cope with misfortune and stand up to all hardships in life. She conveys happiness, love and understanding. She smiles when she wants to scream; she sings when she wants to weep. She cries when she is happy, and she laughs when she is afraid. She fights for what she believes in. She rises against injustice. She cannot accept a rejection when she sees a better solution. She devotes her entire self to the well-being of her family. Her love is unconditional. She cries out of happiness for her children. She is happy for the success of her friends. She is touched when there is a wedding or a child is born. She knows that kisses and hugs may cure a broken heart.

    I'm glad I'm a woman because:

    I don't need to be responsible for the remote control (or loosing it)
    I don't get the blame for recording the wrong programme (or knowing how the machine works)
    I can cuddle my new grandson (and I can admit to them that I am biased when someone says he's soooo lovely)
    I know how much pain my daughter went through giving birth (been there twice)
    I didn't need 'to wet the baby's head' (just cried because this was expected of me)
    I don't have to do the washing up after dinner
    I don't have to put the rubbish out to the dustmen (nor do I take the responsibility of sorting it into however many bags we now have to use)

    Think that's all for the time being (sure to think of some more another day)

    :wink:

    JUST watching Medicine Man,SEAN CONNORY,what a man :smile: glad to be a woman,so I can just watch the sexiest man this centuary,and just let my imagination run wild.I found being a woman is usefull as most of the things I thought about have already been said,although I feel it costs us more,keeping up with the fashion,such as it is,men don't bother.We do have far more common sense than men,more compasion,more patience,more morals. In fact I think we are far above men in many ways,but some look good from a distance,and they are usefull to have around :smile: Mirabella

    women have a higher threshold of pain

    much more commonsense,when lost we ask directions men would just drive round for hours getting grumpy!

    which reminds me,we got a tomtom,my husband changed it to a female voice then spent the whole journey arguing with it and going in a different direction to what she said lol.......men eh :roll:

    My hubby drives the car asking me what the tomtom just said or where to turn next? Kind of like he STILL won't take directions, even though he programmed the bloody thing??

    Also, he will ring me from the supermarket to ask me where stuff is. He doesn't like asking the staff, much prefers to interrupt me at work, with friends, at the cinema to ask where they've put the bread this week: in the same place it was last week, sweetie!

    That sums us up nicely, Len. We spend 99% of our time caring for others, but that is our strength too, and I wouldn't have it any other way as long as it is appreciated occasionally.

    Another strength is our ability to find things which are lost, like socks, keys etc. We seem to have a built-in radar which men lack.

    You wouldn't even be here to show off your reverse parking if it weren't for us women. We brought you into the world, which takes rather more skill, I believe. :lol::lol:

    Oh Rehab44

    Just lookinng at your post, im proud to be a woman, and to answer some of your comments.
    1. Men aint inteligent enough to have a long conversation over 30secs
    2. What women wants to watch movie nudity, when they have their partner beside them, (ON SECOND THOUGHTS WHERE IS MY NEAREST S.X SHOP)
    5. Monitor our friends Sex Lives, we leave that to men as they can only talk about theirs and boast.

    Im proud to be a woman in more ways than a man can say.
    Anyway who wants to stand up having a P..

    Regards
    Maggie
    ps we dont need to have our partner clean up the bathroom after we go to the loo,
    WHY?
    Cause we are women.
